Martin Murray always said that British middleweight champion Chris Eubank Jr. had no intention of fighting IBO/WBA/WBC/IBF king Gennady 'GGG' Golovkin.

Instead, IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook answered the call and now moves up by thirteen pounds to face Golovkin on September 10th at the O2 Arena in London.
